    Playoffs start Wednesday. Will forever predict Bruins victory...

    First round matchups: (Home ice advantage stated first) (All series best of 7)

    East-
    Ottawa vs Boston*
    Montreal vs New York Huns*
    Washington* vs Toronto
    Pittsburgh* vs Columbus

    West-
    Anaheim vs Calgary*
    Edmonton* vs San Jose
    Chicago* vs Nashville
    Minnesota* vs St Louis

    * indicated my picks for each series. I'd follow ANA vs CGY and PIT vs CBJ if your the casual fan, both will be nasty and entertaining to watch. Just can't beat playoff hockey, its like a Champions League night every night.

    F*ck off with this * haha.

    NY Rangers have nothing to do with that team.

    I am very excited for playoff hockey tonight! Will probably go to games in New York and Boston in the first round!

    Boston blows a 3-1 third period lead to lose 4-3 in OT of game two.

    Nashville shocking the hockey world right now, winning game one 1-0 and game two 5-0 (FIVE), both in Chicago. * mental.

    MTL and NYR knotted at 1 going back to New York, as are Toronto and Washington. St Louis with 2 wins in Minnesota as well, home ice advantage is non existent in these playoffs. Great balance, shows the quality of the league. Unlike the NBA or NFL, when it comes to playoff time, anybody can beat anybody.

    With the exception of the New England Patriots, there is plenty of variance in what happens in the NFL play-offs.

    St Louis win game 3, lead Minnesota 3-0 in the series. Shocked. Bruce Boudreau's playoff struggles continue.

    Radulov's goal was pretty special. To do that one handed and fight off the defenseman takes skill.

    Caps struggling to adapt to the style the Leafs play.

    Tim Peel with an honest mistake that would make any Sevco fan wet their pants. Absolutely atrocious reffing finished off with a banger in OT, and Bobby Ryan scores to put Ottawa up 2-1 in the series. Boston had comeback from 3-0 to tie it up.

    Toronto beating Washington 4-3 in OT to lead 2-1. Can't believe the Leafs are causing the Caps as many problems as they have been. Every game has gone to OT.

    What a night for the NHL. 4 games, all go to OT.

    Both Anaheim and Nashville win, and go up 3-0 in their respective series. The Ducks came back from 4-1 down in Calgary to win, it's gonna be a glum couple days here...

    He had a stinker in the Toronto game the other night as well.

    Then again, I can't remember a game that he has ever officiated correctly.

    My hometown Flames get swept by the Anaheim Ducks. While it was still a very close series, Flames just couldn't get the goaltending. Calgary could have easily won 2-3 games, but Brian Elliott didn't get it done at home and the Flames couldn't defend. Never even got to make it down to the Red Mile either :31:

    Pretty excited that the Rangers are in the second round! Love sending the Habs home! Bring on round 2! I hope the Bruins win today to force a game 7 in that series!
